1 .My cooking was a single handle cooking pot. I got help from my husband to take the handle off. After that, clean and dry the cooking pot. My pot has some apple paintings on it that I was dying to get rid off. So, I painted the apple paintings with white acrylic paint. Also the defected area of the pot handle. Leave it to dry.

2 .Now, spray paint the enamel pot, concentrated on the painted area, so it will look smoother and even. Let it dry.

3 .The pot holder is almost finished, with a smooth white look, the pot is ready for some more make over. Take your small brush and paint the pot’s mouth with dark blue paint. Leave it until dry.
